I have lived a long life, and I am proud that I spend the whole of my life in the service of my people. I am only proud of this and nothing else. I shall continue to serve until my last breath, and when I die, I can say, that every drop of my blood will invigorate India and strengthen it.

Forgiveness is a virtue of the brave.

From Indira Gandhi

One must beware of ministers who can do nothing without money, and those who want to do everything with money.
